Kalachakra

Tsenshap Serkong Rinpoche always used these verses from the “The Abridged Kalachakra Tantra” before beginning Kalachakra teachings and practice.

A guru-yoga practice for seeing our guru as inseparable from Kalachakra and for making requests to him for inspiration to develop the various realizations along the Kalachakra path to enlightenment.

Kalachakra texts have molded their description of cycles of history, such as their containing a future Armageddon battle against non-Indic invaders and the dawning of a new golden age, to fit the structure of its meditation practice.

The symbolism in the Kalachakra mandala represents a union of opposites, indicative of the harmony needed for establishing world peace.

The evolution of a universe is intimately connected with the karma of the limited beings that will be reborn into it.

Kalachakra practice includes a special way of meditating on voidness in which we meditate not just on the actual meaning of voidness, but we also try to simulate doing this with a blissful clear light mind.
